TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT (TMJ) EXPOSURE
Imaging angle: Take a submento-vertex exposure (axial
projection) to determine the exact imaging angle. Adjust
the imaging angle with the left / right arrows according to
your measurement.
NOTE The ruler measurement depends on the position of the
layer light. On retakes always use a ruler to measure
the position. Do not rely on numeric position values.
NOTE Make sure that you have selected the right patient and
the panoramic exposure mode in the Planmeca
Romexis program before you take an exposure. Refer
to the Romexis User's Manual.
When you are ready to take an exposure touch the Ready
field on the main display. The X-ray unit will move to the
ready position and the temple supports will automatically
close.
